Wait, only now does QT Marshall show up. Fans boo him for being so late to the rescue, and even the Nightmare Family is confused as to what took him so long. QT tries to claim he had headphones on so he couldn’t hear what was going on, but was it because he didn’t care?
Backstage interview with the Young Bucks.
The Death Triangle is coming for their titles but where is the champs’ focus? Well Rey Fenix beat Matt Jackson last week in singles competition, and sometime last year he beat Nick Jackson in singles competition. Luckily for the Bucks, these are tag team championships, and they’re the best damn team in pro-wrestling! But now Don Callis comes in and says that was great stuff, they almost sound like they believe it. What is he doing here? Well he was just worried about their dad, how he got hurt and they didn’t do a thing about it. Callis got them a shirt, “DO NOT SLAP LEG WHEN KICKING.”
The Bucks throw the shirt away and they point out Callis’ eye is actually okay. Oh, right, yes, Callis admits he was faking the black eye. He was never hit by the Bucks. But he wanted them to hit him! It would’ve hurt and put him in the hospital like their dad, but he wanted to see the NJPW Bucks who would just destroy their opponents. They basically founded this place, but what’s even elite about them anymore? Killing the Business is killing it, but the Bucks have kinda killed their own careers. Callis likes to take credit for things, but Kenny Omega barely even recognizes these two anymore.
Oh you mean the Kenny Omega Don Callis brainwashed and changed? What is he doing here?! Yes, Callis has changed Omega, because Omega is the GOD OF PRO-WRESTLING! Omega’s way up here while the Bucks are in the basement! Omega doesn’t recognize them because they’re not elite. They’re just another team with fancy tights living off a name. But before they get mad at Callis, he asks if they look in the mirror and see the same Bucks he saw back in NJPW. Callis may be many things, but is he right?
Jade Cargill VS Dani Jordyn!
The storm is back, ready to add to the big win she had during the “Crossroads” Dynamite. Will Jade make sure the Real Mean Girl doesn’t even think about making a page about her in the Burn Book?
The bell rings, Jade doesn’t take Dani serious but there are fans on Dani’s side. Jade flexes, Dani gets around her but Jade switches. Dani elbows out hard then runs, into a BOOT! Fans boo as Jade looms over Dani. Dani slowly gets up, fans rally but Jade drags her into a HUGE GERMAN SUPLEX!! Jade kips up and says this can’t be the best they could give her. Jade drags Dani up, reels her back in, chicken wings for the JADED SLAM!! Cover, Jade wins!
Winner: Jade Cargill, by pinfall
Red Velvet is in the crowd of wrestlers, and Jade gets in her face about it! The others have to keep Velvet from mixing it up with Jade, but will Velvet get her chance at redemption? Or will Jade storm right past Velvet and go after the AEW Women’s World Championship?
MJF and HIS faction are here!
Maxwell Jacob Friedman leads Tully Blanchard, Shawn Spears, FTR and of course Wardlow to the ring but Tully has the mic. “It’s great being in the middle of this ring with this group of guys. Because one week ago, we stood in here with the greatest group AEW had, The Inner Circle.” Santana and Ortiz were cuffed! “Tough guy” Jake Hager was smashed with champagne! Sammy Guevara was wearing a chair, and their leader, the great Chris Jericho got hit by a baseball bat! That makes this group the baddest group in AEW now! When you’ve climbed the mountain and there’s nowhere else, you’re at the pinnacle of this sport, and that’s where this group is!
Tully was with the greatest group of guys 40 years ago, and he’ll finish his career with the greatest group of guys in wrestling. Mark his words! MJF takes the mic now and fans boo even harder. “I guess I’m Judas now.” MJF tells Jericho that pretending to like him was no walk in the park. Jericho could use some walks in the park, for that matter. It wasn’t so easy to be the most charismatic man in wrestling and take a second seat behind Jericho. MJF had to fall back as far as Jericho’s hairline! And it damn sure wasn’t easy separating Jericho from Sammy as far apart as Jericho’s pecs are.
But MJF did. He shucked, jived, did the song and dance, and pretended to love Jericho’s haha stupid BS!! “But it worked, didn’t it?” Jericho thought he had MJF under his wing when MJF was actually plucking Jericho’s feathers. Then the coup de grace that MJF tricked Jericho and every “disgusting, mouth breathing miscreant” in the audience into thinking MJF wanted to take over the Inner Circle. But in reality, it was an elaborate ruse so no one would see what was coming. Day one was to kill the Inner Circle from the inside. MJF wanted to defeat and end the strongest faction in all of AEW, and then on top of their ruins, build one even stronger. Boy has he ever!
Tully was right! Shocking, right? He’s only the greatest mind in wrestling ever! He called them the pinnacle because that is what they are! You may not like this line-up but you have to look at it! “War Dog” Wardlow, 278 pounds of sheer force and dominance! The best big man in pro-wrestling today! The best insurance policy, too. Fans taunt them with “You Guys Suck!” Then there’s #DoubleS, the Chair Man, Shawn Spears! A wrestler’s wrestler, a veteran’s veteran and a man who has been held down for far too long! Spears has always been a top guy, and he’ll prove it week in and week out! If you got a problem with that, take it up with him. You’ll eat your words, then eat a chair shot!
And speaking of top guys, Cash Money, Dax the Ax, FTR! The only Grand Slam Tag Team Champions in pro-wrestling history! The greatest team on God’s green earth and they look good doing it. Then of course, there’s lil’ ol’ MJF! The one who’s been on national TV for one year and is the most talked about name in pro-wrestling today! The guy who both on the mic and in the ring is UNSTOPPABLE! And he’s only 24 years old. MJF is great now but like a fine wine, he’ll get better with age. He has 25+ years left and that must piss everyone off! Everyone knows that when MJF’s career is said and done, Jericho won’t be the GOAT. No, that spot is reserved for MJF!!
This is the Pinnacle, they’re a family, and they’ll be the backbone of AEW for years! They’ll take every great title there is to offer, “and as the Pinnacle, we will take what we want, when we want.” And right now, what they want is the Inner Circle’s locker room. But before taking that and everything Jericho holds near and dear, MJF will give him a heartwarming message. Let’s see if he can get this right. “I’m better than you, and you know it!!” Will the Pinnacle not only stand atop AEW, but the entire world of wrestling?
10 Man Tag: Jurassic Express & Bear Country VS Matt Hardy, Private Party, The Butcher & The Blade!
Jungle Boy, Luchasaurus and Marko Stunt team up with Boulder and Bronson to settle things with all of Big Money Matt’s growing empire. But with the new edge Hardy has given Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy, and the edge we’ve always seen in Andy William & Braxton Sutter, will the combined forces of dinosaurs and bears only be cut to shreds?

JB fights up again, fights back again, but Blade CLUBS him again. Blade drags JB up, inverted suplex to a fireman’s carry but JB fights out! Blade knees low, whips but JB rebound LARIATS! Both men are down, the ref starts a standing count, but both men crawl for their corners and AEW returns to single picture in time for hot tags to Kassidy and Luchasaurus! Luchasaurus rallies over Private Party, BOOTS Butcher then fires off hands on Private Party!

Luchasaurus says he wanted to tag someone else but the Bears argue with him! Stunt tags in and gets after Kassidy, but the wolves attack the bears and Luchasaurus!

Winners: Matt Hardy, Private Party, The Butcher & The Blade
Big Money Matt gets paid, and because his clients get paid, he gets paid more! Will this faction be a financial savior for Hardy while Hangman gets all his Q1 earnings?
Jon Moxley and Eddie Kingston prepare backstage.
Kingston asks Moxley how he’s feeling, just as Moxley wants him to ask, so they’re clearly on the same page. Moxley doesn’t feel good, though. He’s not in a good mood. Not just because he got burned and lacerated, but then he got cuffed and beaten to a bloody pulp. Moxley should be on a beach somewhere, sipping a Mai Tai, but he’s going to war again because it’s time to take care of the real problem. Sometimes you have to step back, take a look, and fix the real problem. And they know what that real problem is, don’t they? The Good~ Brothers~! Everybody loves the Good Brothers, right? Not Moxley. At all. And not just because Moxley wasted money on Talknshopamania.
It’s because they’re cheap shot artists! Moxley turns around, there’s Gallows & Anderson. Turn around again, there’s Gallows & Anderson. No one wants to look at Gallows that much. Those dumb teeth and googly eyes, he’s like Forky from Toy Story! He’s one wiggly eyed dude. But then Karl Anderson, or Chad2Badd~! But he’s all gangster cuz of Bullet whatever. Kingston swears he saw the Too Sweet somewhere before, also on TNT, but like years ago. Who were those guys again? But anyway, Moxley is in pain so let’s get serious. They can joke and all that, but Good Brothers have been tag champions all over the world.
The thing is, this isn’t Japan. This isn’t the Impact Zone. No, this is their place. And let’s be honest, to get 50 Cent. You’ve never popped nothin’, never shot nothin’, so stop frontin’. Well, did Bullet Club actually shoot things? Can we even say that name on Dynamite? Forbidden door? Well going from 50 to Tupac, “You guys are cowards, and a coward dies a thousand deaths.” But the soldiers only die but once. See you out there. Will the Maniac and the Mad King crush the Biz Cliz so they can have a clear shot at The Cleaner?
Backstage interview with Christian Cage.
Dasha asks him the question everyone’s been wanting to ask: What brought him here to AEW? Christian says he’s going to go on a bit of a rant but he promises he’ll get to an answer. “There’s a term in the wrestling business for the type of wrestler that when they get in that ring on a nightly basis, no matter the situation, no matter the opponent, they bust their ass more than anybody else on the card. They’re called a ‘workhorse.'” And if you’ve ever been inside a pro-wrestling locker room, then you know Christian’s reputation. Moxley said it himself, he thought he knew wrestling until he got in the ring with Christian. Christian makes wrestlers level up.
But Christian’s not a workhorse. He is THE workhorse in pro-wrestling. If you’ve forgotten that, the second he gets in the ring in AEW, you’ll remember quick. And Christian realizes he might’ve rustled feathers. The young wrestlers think the old veteran is going to take some spots. He’ll put their minds at ease and say, “There’s only one spot that interests me, and it’s currently occupied by AEW World Heavyweight Champion, Kenny Omega.” Speaking of, Omega scooped Christian’s time. The champ can do what he wants, cool. But that means Christian got to meet Omega and basically tell him he’s on borrowed time.
Christian knows he needs to win, prove himself, but he promises to see Omega down the road. So now, why is Christian in AEW? “To cement my legacy.” He is going to put to action three simple words: Out work everyone. Will THE Workhorse, THE Captain Charisma, find a way to become THE challenger to the Best Bout Machine?

When push came to shove and lives were on the line, friendship was found again and now Maniac and Mad King look to take out the AEW World Champion’s cronies!

Gallows headbutts Kingston, but Kingston is still defiant as he stumbles about. Gallows runs into the corner, Kingston elbows him away! Gallows ROCKS Kingston with an uppercut, tag to Anderson, and Anderson digs his boot into Kingston again. Anderson stomps Kingston, taunts Moxley, then drags Kingston up by an ear. Anderson puts Kingston in the corner, rakes Kingston’s face, then tags Gallows. Gallows drags Kingston up to snampare and wrap on a chinlock.
Kingston endures again as AEW returns to single picture. Kingston throws body shots to get free, but Gallows knees low! Gallows whips Kingston corner to corner, runs in but Kingston boots him! Kingston hops up to leap, FLYING SHOULDER! Both men are down again and fans are fired up! Kingston and Gallows crawl to their corners, but Kingston is a bit disoriented!

But Gallows CLOBBERS Moxley! Anderson stomps Moxley, Gallows chokes Moxley, then Anderson rains down rights! And now Kenny Omega walks out! And he has a chair! Omega takes his time strutting to the ring, and he sits the chair up. Callis takes Omega’s jacket off for him and Omega takes a seat. Kingston gets in to CLOBBER Omega! The Good Brothers go after Kingston and Omega stomps Kingston for that! Good Brothers get Kingston up for MAGIC KILLER! Omega digs his boot into Moxley’s head, then gets the chair back.

Kingston demands the medics help him get into the ring with Moxley but they’re telling him that leg won’t let him. Will Moxley get revenge on Omega for this? Will the Bucks have their own score to settle with Omega and Callis?
AEW returns with Tony Schiavone on stage.
Even after Revolution’s incredible Street Fight, Darby Allin was able to successfully defend the AEW TNT Championship, but let’s welcome him and of course… IT’S STIIIING~! The snow, the crow and the Icon, but also the Relentless One, walk out on stage. Darby limps a bit because of what happened after the match last week. A hell of a match with Scorpio Sky, but no one saw what Scorpio would do. Darby takes the mic to say he won the TNT title on November 7th, 2020. How many times has he defended since? Three. Fans cheer but Darby says not to, because that’s a joke!
But now that things are done with Team Taz, Darby wants to be a fighting champion week in and week out! That starts by paying tribute to the greatest TNT Champion, Brodie Lee! If Dark Order wants the belt, this is an open challenge! But Lance Archer can’t believe this. How many times are we going to interview Sting? Oh sorry, Darby, did Archer just take up your time? Archer doesn’t give a rat’s ass about that! This time should be his! As for the TNT Championship, the internet might think Darby is great, but Archer says Darby is the biggest “indieriffic” joke ever! And if Darby like coffins so much, Archer will put his ass in one!
Jake the Snake speaks now and says Darby is going to freeze his butt off. He should go put his bun back on. HIs hot dog bun, cuz he’s a weenie! And as for Sting, Sting knows Snake. The winds of change are coming! You don’t play with fire. This is the biggest, baddest SOB here, and Archer will twist it and shove it up their rear ends! The Snake promises things are going to change and Archer promises to crush both of these guys. But wait, wait, wait, Team Taz isn’t done with these two just yet! Taz tells them not to get excited, but then Cage takes over. Cage has something to say! Cage stares Sting down and says he shows up like a hotshot, sticking his nose in Team Taz’s business.
But after all the back and forth and the physicality and the craziest Street Fight ever, Cage respects Sting. What?! But more importantly, Cage wants to look Sting in the eye. Starks is wrong. Sting is STILL the Icon. Taz can’t believe Cage is saying this stuff but Cage says he says it like it is! Cage storms off and leaves Team Taz behind. Will The Machine break free of FTW and carve his own path?
Scorpio Sky speaks.
“I did everything I was asked to.” He wants to be the poster boy, the face of AEW, but TNT wants Cody, Darby, Sting. “Nice guys finish last” but Scorpio tried to be the exception to the rule, only to fail. Until Revolution. That was never meant to be Scorpio’s moment, but he made it. And the TNT Championship wasn’t supposed to be his moment but another moment for Darby. No more of that! Scorpio will not be a stepping stone. He is a wrestling savant and is tired acting like he isn’t the best! If he has to hurt someone to prove it, then so be it!
Rey Fenix w/ PAC VS Angelico w/ Jack Evans!
The Young Bucks put the Death Triangle on notice, but they’re also a bit distracted given what’s going on with Kenny Omega. Will Fenix stay hot in singles competition until he and The Bastard get that tag title match?
The bell rings, Fenix and Angelico tie up, Angelico wrenches to a wristlock but Fenix spins through to wrench and wrench and step over the arm to hook a leg. Fenix gets the other arm and fans cheer this innovation. Angelico trips Fenix, gets a facelock, then wrenches to a wristlock. Fenix rolls, wrenches, wristlocks again, but Angelico turns it around to wrangle Fenix down. Fenix bridges, kips up, spins and arm-drags! Fans fire up as Angelico resets with Fenix. They circle, knuckle lock and Angelico step sin to cording hold. Angelico wrenches the other arm but Fenix headbutts, CHOPS and CHOPS! Fenix goes again but gets caught to a keylock!
Angelico wrenches, Fenix spins through to hop on for a sleeper hold! Then shifts to roll and ghost pin, TWO!! Angelico escapes but gets caught to a sunset flip, TWO! Fenix dodges the boot, blocks the knee, but Angelico powers him down with it to get the arm! Angelico CLUBS the back and Fenix writhes. Angelico stomps Fenix down and AEW goes picture in picture.
Fenix is on the apron, Angelico KICKS him through the ropes. Angelico tears at the KT tape, the ref reprimands but Angelico lets off. Angelico drags Fenix up and bends him against ropes, but the ref counts and he lets off at 4. Fenix gets back in the ring but Angelico drags Fenix up to cross the arms and bring him into an INVERTED ITALIAN STRETCH! Angelico lifts Fenix’s legs so that Fenix is completely stranded in the air! Angelico then lets him down to trip him up, roll him and ANKLE LOCK! Angelico traps Fenix’s other leg, but Fenix reaches back to club Angelico. Fenix endures the hold, reaches, hits Angelico, but Angelico lets him go.
Angelico knees Fenix to a corner, knees him to the apron, then pulls him against ropes again. The ref counts, Angelico lets off at 4, and Fenix practically hangs out of the ring. Angelico taunts Pac and that pisses him off, but the ref keeps him back while AEW goes to break.
AEW returns and Fenix steps in to RANA Angelico! Fenix boots, SUPERKICKS and then somersaults to CUTTER! Cover, TWO!! Fenix is shocked but he drags Angelico up and wrenches to fireman’s carry. Angelico fights out, throws elbows then CLUBS Fenix in the back. Angelico slips under, hooks the leg to trip Fenix up, and he wants the trailer hitch! NAVARRO DEATH ROLL!! Fenix scrambles to ropes and gets the ropebreak before Angelico can finish up the Navarro Dos Mil! The ref counts, Angelico lets go at 3, and he grows frustrated. Angelico stalks Fenix to ropes, KICKS him in the back, then drags Fenix to step through.
Fenix kicks Angelico away, Angelico rolls off Fenix’s back but Fenix victory rolls! TWO, Angelico has the cover, TWO! Fenix avoids a sweep but not the EDDY GORDO! Fenix SUPERKICKS, Angelico ROUNDHOUSES! Both men lean on each other to say up, knuckle locks become a monkey flip boost to the CRUCIFIX DRIVER! Fenix drags Angelico back up, FIRE THUNDER DRIVER!! Cover, Fenix wins!
Winner: Rey Fenix, by pinfall
The Firebird pulls off the win in a split second! Death Triangle is rolling on, will they get the AEW World Tag Team Championships off distracted Young Bucks?
AEW Media catches up with Miro.
Miro is working out and Alexa Marvez asks him about the rematch. Miro can’t understand why “Charles” is doing this. He did sweeten the deal with lifetime butler service, though. But Miro isn’t interested. The opportunity has moved on, Miro has moved on, but Kip Sabian says he hasn’t. Chuck Taylor & Orange Cassidy ruined Kip’s wedding. Miro was supposed to care. But whether he meant to or not, he pushed Cassidy into Kip’s wife, Penelope Ford. Miro is the one hurt, if Kip thinks tending to his wife is more important than winning the match. Miro says the worst thing for your career is to have your wife ringside.
But remember, when the bell rings, Miro doesn’t care about Kip, Penelope, drama or the opponent. It is about the destiny. It is Miro’s destiny to be champion, he NEEDS to be world champion! Kip wants that, too. Okay. Outside the ring, they’re still buds. But is that a yes or no to the challenge? Of course it’s a yes! Will the Superbad and Best Man be able to finally get to the next level against the Kentucky Gentleman and Freshly Squeezed?
AEW has news for next week’s Dynamite!
In a rematch from the AEW Women’s World Title Eliminator Tournament, Nyla Rose will face Tay Conti! The Pinnacle officially competes as a team as Shawn Spears & FTR take on The Varsity Blondes & Dante Martin! And with Darby Allin issuing an Open Challenge to the Dark Order, we will see one of their numbers step up to a TNT Championship opportunity! Speaking of…
Backstage interview with The Dark Order.
Who is accepting Darby Allin’s challenge? Negative One says “It’s gonna be me!” No, no, Brodie Jr, not yet. Maybe in about a decade when you’re Number 9. But while everyone’s hesitant, Alex Reynolds volunteers John Silver. Ohhh yeah~! The Meat Man, Johnny Hungy! The Dark Order chant, “MEAT! MEAT! MEAT!” And so it is set! Darby Allin VS Number 4 for the TNT Championship is happening! Will Silver take back the title for the glory of the group?
Further news for next week!
As seen on the premiere of Dark: Elevation, Matt Sydal has earned a non-title shot at Kenny Omega. But if he wins, he will get a title shot at a later date! Can Sydal strike down the Cleaner to go for gold?
The Pinnacle follows through on their first promise!
MJF says, “Chris, what’s yours is mine, and what’s the Inner Circle’s is now the Pinnacle’s.” They replace the nameplate on the Inner Circle private room and put the Pinnacle’s in its place! Is this just the beginning of MJF and his team taking over?
Unsanctioned Lights Out No Holds Barred: Britt Baker w/ Rebel VS Thunder Rosa!
For months, the Doctor has claimed La Mera Mera doesn’t belong in her AEW Women’s Division. But that’s about as substantial as Britt’s claims of being the Role Model and face of AEW. It’s gotten so bad, AEW cannot be held liable for what they’re about to do to each other! Will Rosa make Britt eat her words and possibly her teeth in a match where there’s no holding back and anything goes?
The lights go out, then come back on. Britt makes her entrance first, with Rebel hobbling on the crutch, and not in a good mood since she wanted to be over Rosa. Rosa makes her entrance next, and is fired up. They get in each other’s face but Rebel SMACKS Rosa with the crutch! Rosa stays up and she chases Rebel as the bell rings! Rosa gets Rebel at the ramp but Britt runs and DIVES to take Rosa down! Britt rains down fists, then gets Rosa up for AIR RAID CRASH to the stage! Cover, TWO!! Anything goes means falls count anywhere and Britt throws Rosa off the stage! Britt gets a chair while Rosa sits up, but Rosa avoids the chair shot!
Hikaru Shida watches from backstage as Britt jams Rosa with the chair! Britt flaunts for the camera, but Rosa gets the chair to TOSS it at Britt’s face! Rosa stomps Britt, gets the chair and SMACKS her on the back! And again! Rosa hits Rebel for good measure! Rosa digs the chair into Britt’s neck, and only lets off so she can SMACK her on the back again! Rosa drags Britt up to throw into the front row! Fans cheer “This is Awesome!” as Rosa chases Britt and stomps her down! Rosa drags Britt up, bumps her off chairs, then stands on Britt’s head! And then bumps her off the chair again! Rosa sits Britt up, clears some space, and runs, but Britt dodges so Rosa CANNONBALLS onto only chairs!
Britt hurries to cover, TWO!! Britt throws Rosa hard over railing to ringside, and then tumbles over after her to throw more forearms. Rosa hits back, Britt whips Rosa into stage wall! Jade Cargill is watching and enjoying from the bleachers while Britt and Rebel bring out and set up a table! Britt fetches Rosa at the ramp, and STOMPS her into the steel steps!! Britt grins as she drags more chairs out to throw them into the ring. Britt fetches Rosa and Rosa is bleeding from her forehead! Britt ROCKS Rosa, puts her in the corner, and sits Rosa up so the world can see as AEW goes picture in picture.
Britt clubs Rosa in the head over and over, then drags her up to cravat. Britt throws knees, talks trash, throws more knees, then chokes Rosa against ropes! The ref can only ask if Rosa wants to give up but Rosa refuses. Britt lets off to get the chairs. Britt wedges one chair in a corner, then kicks Rosa down. Britt brings Rosa up to throw forearms. Britt mocks Rosa but Rosa pie faces Britt! Britt ROCKS Rosa, then drags Rosa over. Rosa turns things around to snap suplex Britt into the ropes! Rosa drags Britt back around, covers, TWO! Rosa throws forearms, then gets the chair out of the corner to JAM it into Britt’s legs! And SMACK her on the back!
Rosa puts the chairs in a pile, but Britt CLUBS her! Rosa stomps Britt, throws more forearms, then bumps Britt off buckles. Britt elbows Rosa, throws forearms in the corner, then hoists her up top. AEW returns to single picture as Britt climbs to join Rosa. Rosa brawls with Britt, Britt gets Rosa up, SUPERPLEX onto the chair pile!! Fans lose their minds but also chant “This is Awesome!” as Rosa writhes! Britt hurries to cover, TWO!! Rosa survives and Britt grows frustrated. Britt shouts to Rebel and Rebel brings out a ladder! Rebel puts that in the ring, Britt brings it over, but Rosa is up and BULLDOGS Britt on the ladder!! Britt clutches her face but Rosa covers, TWO!!
Rosa has a crimson mask completing her face paint as she glares at Britt in the corner. Rosa goes corner to corner to METEORA! Rosa sees the ladder and gets it up! Rosa wedges the ladder up against Britt’s face, and then runs corner to corner again, to DROPKICK it into Britt’s face!! Britt is busted open now! Rosa gets a table of her own now and sets it up. Rebel freaks out as the ref checks on Britt, but Rosa stomps Britt down! Rosa drags Britt out of the ring but Britt clings to the bottom rope. Rosa CLUBS Britt over and over, Britt kicks but Rosa stomps her. Rosa has the ladder again and sets it up against the bottom rope to elevate it. Rosa then BITES Britt’s wound!! Britt SUPERKICKS back!!
Rosa flounders, Britt hobbles over and brings her up, COMPLETE SHOT TO THE LADDER!! Britt has a crimson mask now as she flounders around and gets to a corner. Rebel coaches Britt on as she climbs up, but Rosa ROCKS Britt with a haymaker! Rosa climbs up, brings Britt up in a fireman’s carry, and hits a DEATH VALLEY DRIVER ON THE LADDER!!! The ref checks on Britt, Rosa drags her to a cover! TWO!?!? Britt survives and no one can believe it!! Rosa drags Britt around, Britt keeps hitting back but Rosa sits a chair up. Britt throws hard body shots but Rosa clubs her back! Britt DDT’s Rosa to the chair!! Britt then sets Rosa on the chair again, to CURB STOMP her on it!! Cover, TWO!?!?
Fans are thunderous but Britt has another psycho smile like she did last year from her bloody nose! Rebel gives Britt the latex gloves to put on! And she brings out a bag from under the ring! A black satchel is never good in wrestling, and Britt clears some space to pour out… THUMBTACKS!! Britt drags Rosa up, throws a forearm, then brings her around to FISH- NO! Rosa slips out of the spinning fisherman to reel Britt in! Britt blocks the bomb, Rebel gets in with the crutch, but Rosa dodges that attack to take the crutch and SMACK Rebel with it! Rebel flops out of the ring, Britt stalks up on Rosa, but Rosa SHOTGUNS Rebel off the apron, and Rebel falls through the table!
Rebel is down in the wreckage of the table she and Britt set up themselves, but Britt fireman’s carries Rosa! Rosa slips off, kicks low, reels Britt in, and POWERBOMBS her on the thumbtacks!!! Cover, TWO?!?!?! Rebel can’t believe Britt survives but fans again say, “This is Awesome!” Rosa drags Britt but Britt grabs Rosa’s hair, takedown! Rings of Saturn in the tacks!! LOCKJAW! But Rosa rolls Britt back! She can’t hold the cover because of all the tacks!! Britt’s wild eyes are still visible through all that blood, and she SUPERKICKS Rosa! Rosa flounders to ropes, Britt stands on her on the apron. Britt goes out to join Rosa, brings her around and goes up the corner. She’s aiming for Rosa’s table!
But Rosa grabs Britt, scoops her to the THUNDER DRIVER THROUGH THE TABLE!!! Cover, Rosa wins!!!
Winner: Thunder Rosa, by pinfall
HOLY HELL!! Rosa finally ends this with Britt as the one standing tall! Britt’s wounds will surely heal, but will she ever recover from what this defeat means in the long run?
My Thoughts:
An awesome AEW tonight! Cody VS Penta was a great opener, and Cody getting a quick win works to extend things a bit. I like that they also found a way to bring in the Nightmare Family story with QT Marshall with the typical “late to the save, someone’s turning.” Jade Cargill had a great squash for her second match ever, and it was a good touch that she talked trash to Velvet. MJF formally introducing us to his faction and giving it an honestly great name in “The Pinnacle” was a good segment, as was them quite literally just taking The Inner Circle’s private room while The Inner Circle was gone tonight.
The 10 Man Tag was great stuff, the dysfunction with Jurassic Express & Bear Country and the cohesion of Hardy’s group were good dynamics, and it makes sense for Hardy’s team to win their first time out, or else the story would seem like a waste. The story with the Bucks, Callis and Omega is building up in a great way. Callis had a good promo and wow that shirt. That was actually a great jab at WWE because Vince is insane for banning thigh slaps. Moxley & Kingston had a good promo, had a great match with the Good Brothers, and the Bucks coming out to get in Omega’s face was all incredible stuff. I wonder if we’re somehow going to get a Six Man Tag of Omega & Good Brothers VS The Bucks and Moxley.
We got a good segment out of Sting and Darby, with Archer and Snake interrupting to give fair warning, and then Team Taz showing up and Cage surprisingly complimenting Sting. Archer has a good point about overdoing things with Sting, we don’t need to hear from him every week. Oddly, he’s just a vehicle to get the others some screen time. I don’t really want Cage to leave Team Taz, because Cage and Starks are a great team and #AbsoluteMachines just works so well for them. Darby calling out Dark Order was a good move, and Dark Order giving Silver the greenlight is great. Darby VS Silver is going to be a lot of fun, but I feel like Darby will win, and could run the gambit.
Christian Cage had a good promo, and I’m hoping he does a great job when he has his in-ring debut. Scorpio Sky had a good promo, his turn is going great. Fenix VS Angelico was a great match, but of course Fenix wins to go strong into the match with the Bucks. Miro and Kip had a good segment, but damn that line about having wives ringside hurt the career. Miro is definitely going to be the one to turn on Kip because Kip is going to be the one to take the finish from Chuck and Cassidy. They haven’t actually confirmed if it’s an Arcade Machine match, but given that is what started this feud, I hope that’s what ends it.
In the words of good ol’ Jim Ross, BAH GAWD, that Unsanctioned match was a slobber knocker! I would not have expected that much blood, or how seriously scary they were going to get with that SUPER Death Valley onto a ladder. My only gripe with the segment is that Hikaru Shida was watching backstage. I get that she should want to watch the match as a fan, but given what that usually means in kayfabe, it doesn’t make sense. An unsanctioned match does not count on the win-loss record, because that is what was established by Moxley VS Omega in their own Unsanctioned Lights Out match. Britt or Rosa, it shouldn’t matter who wins because they don’t go up the rankings to challenge the champion. It should either be Big Swole or Red Velvet that Shida worries about next.
Rosa winning was at least the right call in story because she needs to be seen as a winner, even if this isn’t going towards her record. Rosa can still want a non-title match with Shida to see if she could beat the champion, but if AEW is going to give us a ranking system and say wins and losses matter (which actually, I’m not sure I’ve heard them say that themselves lately) then MAKE IT MATTER. Swole should want after Rosa and Shida, Velvet can use a rematch with Jade to prove she’s worthy, and we’ve got time until Double or Nothing to figure it out.
My Score: 9.6/10

Deonna is furious, but maybe she should’ve let the ref throw this out. In the end, Anna gets a real win over Deonna, will this help her get back towards some title scene?
Backstage interview with Billie Starkz.
Lexy Nair is with her ROH Minion buddy, and notes that Billie is the first ROH woman entered in the first ever WrestleDynasty International Women’s Cup! Billie, what an opportunity, how are you feeling? She is excited! This is the second chance she’s been waiting for, and- Red Velvet steps in to say more like NO chance. Because see, Velvet is also in that match, and well, she already beat Billie. So her odds are looking really good. But then in steps Leyla Hirsch. And she says lucky for them both, because Leyla’s in this! Leyla beat Velvet once, and just looking at Billie, Leyla knows she can beat her.
Oh but then in steps the ROH Women’s World Champion, Athena! The Minion Overlord defends her bestie and Billie, and says it is finally time for the Athena World Tour! She is the fourth participant, even though, why does she have to qualify for HER show? Athena has beaten Velvet, she’s beaten “Small fry” Leyla, and well… Billie Goat, we all know Athena dog walked her! Velvet says Athena shouldn’t talk to Billie like that. Billie says “Cupcake” doesn’t need to defend her. Things are getting tense already, who wins their way into WrestleDynasty’s massive crossover match?
Backstage interview with QT Marshall.
Lexy is now with QT and says later int he Zero Hour, it is QT VS Big Boom AJ. QT took AJ out last night after the weigh-in, will it be the same here tonight? QT wants Lexy to remember, pronounce it “Mar-shall.” And yes, in QT’s home state of New Jersey, the best part will be QT remembering why he left. It’s a dump! Especially Newark! But AJ is also from New Jersey, and he properly represents this dump. Whether AJ is on the Tonight Show, on TikTok, or here in AEW, he is the epitome of someone from The Garden State: an embarrassment! He’s worse than Bruce Springsteen himself!
And tonight, in a sold out crowd that QT drew all himself, it will be like going to his high school reunion and showing how he is more successful than everyone else. And he’ll do that by walking to the ring, staring down AJ, and bringing the doom! Will QT Marshall make himself the boss of the Zero Hour? Or will it be a BOOM for all of New Jersey when QT loses?
New Year’s Day is a NEW ERA for AEW!
Starting Wednesday, January 1st, 2025, AEW Dynamite will be SIMULCAST on Max! And even bigger, it is the return of Fight for the Fallen! All proceeds go to helping victims of Hurricane Helene in Ashville, North Carolina.

Mercedes Mone & Kamille arrive backstage.
The CEO is upset that her title defense has to be here in disgusting Newark, NJ. But since the cameras are here, she has something to say to Kamille now. This last month has been super frustrating. Actually, more like embarrassing! Kamille came out to the crowd, pandering for sympathy?! Mone wouldn’t even be in this mess if not for Kamille in the first place! Kamille shows up wanting to attack Kris Statlander, and then she loses to her?! And let’s not even start on her bad driving! Is Kamille stupid or just dumb? Kamille tells Mone to watch herself. Mone asks if she gave Kamille permission to speak. Does Kamille not know who Mone is and what she’s done for this business?
Mone is The CEO, the greatest woman’s champion o fall time! And tonight, Kamille can just watch from catering as Mone shows how a real woman gets the job done. Watch and learn. Mone leaves, Kamille rolls her eyes, but clearly Kamille wishes she could use both arms right now. Will the Brickhouse just have to watch Two Belts Mone lose one of those belts all on her own?

Backstage interview with Orange Cassidy.
Lexy Nair is with Freshly Squeezed and says this past Wednesday, The Death Riders sent a clear message. How is that affecting his mindset tonight? Cassidy says yes, they sent a message. But tonight, “we” send a message back. AEW sends a message back! Private Party started it. They’re AEW Day One, and they’re the AEW World Tag Team Champions. Because AEW means everything to them, just like it does to Cassidy and to all the fans here tonight. How could Moxley possibly understand that? Because Moxley never needed AEW. Cassidy wouldn’t exist without AEW. So tonight, Cassidy shows that AEW doesn’t need Moxley!
Cassidy takes the power, the symbol of what AEW represents, and puts it in his backpack as the NEW AEW World Champion. Cassidy heads out, will he make this all become a reality?

Rampage returns and…
Lexy Nair welcomes us back, while also welcoming us to the official Full Gear Zero Hour weigh-in. Please welcome first, QT Marshall!

There will be no Friday Night Rampage next week, because it will be a BACK-TO-BACK Rampage & Collision Saturday night! Make sure your DVR is ready for three hours of AEW action!
Backstage interview with Thunder Rosa.
Lexy is with La Mera Mera and brings up how next week will be an ALL LUCHA Rampage. That must be exciting. Rosa is beyond excitement! It is about time they get some lucha libre to spice up Rampage. Atlantis Jr, Hechicero, and the return of Mystico! C’mon, now! Well what about Rosa? Yes, what about Rosa? Rosa hasn’t had a true lucha match in awhile, but why not? An open challenge for any luchadora or female wrestler that wants after La Mera Mera! In steps Harley Cameron, wearing a Hologram mask, and putting on a robot voice. “Greetings. I am famed luchadora, Harley-gram, the female counterpart to Hologram.”
Rosa is trying not to laugh as “Harley-gram” officially accepts the open challenge. Rosa tells Harley-gram that she looks familiar. Like a certain someone she beat two weeks ago. Does not compute with Harley-gram. Okay, fine. Compute this: Next week, Rosa will yank her cord and shut her down! OH SHUT UP! What? Uh… Danger! Danger, Will Robinson! Danger! “Harley-gram” runs off and Rosa asks if this is really happening. Rosa sighs, but will she just have to reboot Harley back to factory settings?
Ricochet speaks.
“I have had my eyes on the International title since I debuted in AEW. And Takeshita has cost me my chance at becoming International Champion on more than one occasion. I was the last person to pin the International Champion, and I plan on doing it one more time, at Full Gear. At Full Gear, Takeshita finds out what the world already knows: That Ricochet is not from here. Ricochet is outta this world!” The King of Flight is determined to dethrone The Alpha. Will Ricochet become The One & Only International Champion?

My Thoughts:
A great Rampage here for the go-home to Full Gear, but it was definitely just a go-home. They’re even ending with the November Rain music video from last Saturday as I type this. Good promo from Ricochet to hype up his match with Takeshita, but that’s still a toss-up to me. A part of me does want Ricochet to have the International Champion so Takeshita can enter the Continental Classic and go after Okada like he was supposed to do just a month ago. It really depends on what the Don Callis Family story is going to be with Ospreay and Fletcher, as The Don Callis Family isn’t losing everything at Full Gear.
Great opening tag of Mariah & Mina VS Nyla & Harley, though I really thought that was going to be the main event. But at the same time, of course Mariah & Mina won. No tease for anything at Full Gear so maybe they’ll wait to surprise us with Toni Storm or something tomorrow. Harley becoming “Harley-gram” just to get a rematch with Rosa was hilarious stuff, as does that “All Lucha Rampage” episode they’re hyping up. But oh look, next week is back-to-back Rampage and Collision on a Saturday just to try and undercut Survivor Series. It won’t matter, I’m still watching WarGames and leaving AEW for after, but it’s nice of them to do everything on one night.
Very good filler match of Juice VS Butcher, that was a strong return to singles action for Juice. Very nice Zero Hour matches but I kinda wish they’d given us a segment on TV to set up Deonna VS Anna rather than just announcing it. Maybe there was something social media had but I’m still not someone who follows all the socials. And that Fatal 4 Way is awesome, can’t wait to see who comes out of that a winner. Good promo overall from Big Boom AJ and QT Marshall, but I’m not sure it needed to be a weigh-in. A press conference style segment would’ve been fine, or even a contract signing, but I guess they just wanted to set up QT’s “lay off the cookies” joke. QT stands tall with his cutter taking down AJ, so you can bet AJ dooms QT in the Zero Hour.
Also great Six Man Tag main event, though I don’t think I’ve ever seen a main event without entrances. Great win for Conglomeration, though, but yeah, Ishii sure ain’t winning the ROH World Championship.
My Score: 8.8/10
